Welsh Rarebit, or Welsh Rabbit, is a traditional British dish that consists of melted cheese over toasted bread. As one reviewer says, "Add a slice of smoked (Salted) herring, Tobasco sauce, toast the muffins or Italian bread and try stop eating it!"

Good but it needed to be thinned out. Not as tasty as the Welsh Rarebit of years ago. Perhaps a different cheese was used. I thinned it out with 1% milk and just had it over toast. Easy recipe. Next time will try a different cheese.
